Nearly one-third of first-year college students fail out before their sophomore year. Do I have your attention?
College readiness is predictable—and far less about intelligence or test scores than people think. The strongest predictors fall into five measurable categories, all of which can be observed, quantified, and stress-tested before or during the first semester. The Academic Coaching for University Excellence & Outcomes (ACUXO) is an exclusive program that does just that and will support your student as they enter college and can potentially save you thousands of dollars while helping them achieve excellent results.
More than one million students drop out of college every year, and three-quarters of them are first-generation college students. Now do I have your attention?
With over two decades of teaching the largest face-to-face classes at the country's largest public university (90,000+ students and counting,) Professor McCarthy has worked with tens of thousands of first-year students and seen firsthand what separates those who thrive from those who fail and drop out, often with student debt. His experience spans the full spectrum of student outcomes—from high-achieving honors students to those at risk of academic failure—giving him rare, practical insight into how college actually works and how students can navigate it successfully from day one.
